Abstract
We have argued elsewhere that user goals should be taken into account when deciding what kind of explanation of its results a CBR system should give. In this paper, we propose the use of an Activity Theory based methodology for identifying di#erent user goals and expectations towards explanations given by a system supporting a work process.
